Bible Stick

Partners in ministry work to distribute Scriptures to military personnel. Audio Bibles are being deployed around the world, from "boot camp" and base chapels to veteran's hospitals and war zones.

"The Military Bible Stick is a portable audio player. It's about the size of a pack of chewing gum. It's pre-loaded with a dramatized New Testament. It is especially designed for the military for low-light situations," so that it can be taken along on missions, or used in close-quarters, or in day-to-day activities on a base.

The Bible digital player is one way of reaching today's generation more effectively. Young soldiers tend to listen to portable audio devices around two hours a day--that's more than enough time to listen to the Bible. On the FCBH 40-Day Plan, participants can hear the New Testament by listening just 28 minutes a day.

The Bible Sticks will be distributed to the military through the military's "churches," which in this case are the chaplains. The primary focus is on letting God do His work through His Word in today's military. Faith Comes By Hearing has recently partnered with Campus Crusade for Christ. That's a chaplain network of about 350 active duty and reserve chaplains. They serve the 1.4 million people in active duty." 

The ministry has already been testing the sticks on the field. They've sent out about 1,500 and have had great responses. Because they're so well-received, FCBH has already placed an order for 4,000 more that will be ready for distribution in June. 

Pray, too, for the military families touched by this project and for those who are deployed, that they will receive comfort from the Word of God and respond to the hope of Jesus Christ.
